How to Choose Team Building Activities for 100 Plus People

Planning team building for 100+ people still gives you plenty of choice. We offer team building activities for large groups across indoor, outdoor, competitive and CSR formats, with options for groups of several hundred people.

If you've already spotted an activity you like, that's a good place to start. If not, a few simple considerations can help you narrow down the options.

Think about the space you have

Where the event is taking place can help determine what will suit your group.

A conference or meeting room can work well for activities where teams spend much of their time at tables. With more room, you can consider activities that get people moving around the space. If you want to get everyone outside, that opens up another range of options.

Think about how you'd like people to use the space during the activity, rather than looking at the venue capacity alone.

How much time do you have?

You might have an hour during a conference, 90 minutes after a company meeting or a longer session as part of an away day.

There are large-group activities for different timings, so start with the time you actually have available. The team building can then fit comfortably into the rest of your plans.

What would you like people to get from it?

You don't need a formal team building objective.

You might want something fun and energetic after a day of meetings. You might want colleagues who don't normally work together to mix. You could be looking for a CSR or sustainability element, or something suitable for a group with different ages and abilities.

Or you might simply want an activity that everyone can get involved in and enjoy.

Knowing what you want from the session makes it much easier to choose between activities that suit your group size.

What team building activities work for 100+ people?

There isn't one activity that's right for every large group. Here are a few examples depending on the experience you're looking for.

For something competitive and fast-paced, Trading Table has teams running rival smoothie businesses, earning money, buying ingredients and trading with other teams as they compete to finish with the most cash.

For a CSR option, SolarBuddy gives teams a hands-on activity with a social impact. We've delivered SolarBuddy for 750 people at The Convention Centre Dublin, so it's an option with proven large-group scale.

If you want people out exploring, a Digital Treasure Hunt gets teams moving around their location while completing challenges and competing for points.

For a large outdoor event, Team Olympics gives teams a series of competitive challenges to take on together.

These are just a few examples. There are plenty of other options depending on your event, venue and what your team would enjoy.

Choosing an activity for your large group

If you've already found an activity you like, start there. If you're still deciding, tell us a little about your event and we can recommend some options.

With 100+ people, the question isn't whether team building can work. It's which activity will suit your event best.
